[PATCH v3 2/3] counter: 104-quad-8: Add lock guards - differential encoder cable

From: Syed Nayyar Waris
Date: Thu Mar 12 2020 - 07:25:32 EST


Add lock protection from race conditions in the 104-quad-8 counter
driver for differential encoder cable status changes. There is no IRQ
handling so spin_lock calls are used for protection.

Fixes: bbef69e088c3 ("counter: 104-quad-8: Support Differential Encoder
Cable Status")

Signed-off-by: Syed Nayyar Waris <syednwaris@xxxxxxxxx>

Split the patch from generic driver interface and clock prescaler
related code changes. Also, include more code statements for protection
using spin_lock calls and remove protection from few code statements as
they are unnecessary.
